Last time tire debris got kicked up onto my car it caused $1700 in damage. Bumper, light, grill, hood, A-pillar, and passenger mirror beat to hell. Scratches along the doors & at the rear wheel well too.
That happened to my first Contour. May she rest in peace.
Must be that jumbly-wumbly thing happening again.

I can't imagine why anyone would make fun of you.  I think my lower grill might have gotten hit. I know it was loose before, but now it's cracked. Idk.....but at least it wasn't your bumper. That woulda been a little more to replace!

Yeah, except that I've really wanted to get it repainted along with the front license plate delete, and that would've been a great excuse. No worries, though. I've got the spare to use until I can get the work done.

Yeah really.
I ran over a tire on the highway and it took out a fog, the paint on the bumper and my lower mesh. Sucked alot harder than that.
Oh yeah, and i just took a rock to the windshield of the exploder on the highway. Pretty deep chip with a little crack. I have to see if it can be repaired. It was a NEW windshield! Someone decided to smash it last year when it was parked. Gah!
